The Scott Brodie and Maggie Taylor series is a collaboration between Nelson DeMille and his son Alex DeMille. The books follow two Army CID agents who are paired together on high-profile cases. The Deserter, the first entry, sends Brodie and Taylor to Venezuela to track down a Special Forces officer who has gone AWOL under suspicious circumstances.

Blood Lines continued the series in 2023, and The Tin Men is set for 2025. The partnership between father and son has given the series a slightly different energy from Nelson DeMille’s solo work, though the trademark mix of action, investigation, and banter is still present. The series carries forward the military thriller tradition of the Paul Brenner books while introducing a new generation of characters.
